AutoCad notification sound, LT for Mac

[FlorenceSPASE]

Does anyone know how to turn off the AutoCad notification/ping sound when cancelling a command? All answers I've found online are for windows machines and don't work on a Mac. I'm running AutoCAD LT 2022 on OS Big Sur. All notifications on the mac are set to off but it's still coming through. Any ideas much appreciated!

Tried this, and contacted apple support, issue still persists. All notifications are turned off as per the mac, but autocad seems to break through with the error ping still every time I press esc to cancel a command for example.

Hi @FlorenceSPASE ,

I tried to mute system alerts in macOS System Preferences (Sound pane) and doesn't hear AutoCAD's "beeps on error":

 Can you verify on your Mac once again?

BTW, "beep on error on user input" settings stored in AutoCAD "AlarmOnError" environment variable, it exists in AutoCAD for Mac too, but setting it to 0 (zero) doesn't turn off "beep on error", AutoCAD on Mac always "beeps" on error. looks like it is a bug.

Hi @maxim_k ,

Turns out that whilst I had user interface sounds set to off but the volume still up. Turning the volume all the way down has got rid of the pings! 

many thanks 🙂
